Abstract:
An example electronic display device comprises a flexible display panel, a support panel supporting the flexible display panel, a guide about which the support panel turns and an actuator to apply a local stimulus to selected portions of the support panel that are in proximity with the guide to facilitate changing the selected portions of the support panel from a rigid planar shape to a bent shape about the guide as the support panel and the display panel are moved about the guide and such that the support panel returns to the rigid planar shape once moved away from the guide.
